I was poking around one of my local independant toystores last weekend, and I came across a pinhole camera kit by a British company called John Adams. It appears that you expose directly onto paper. The kit has a gel to make a safelight, as well as developer and fixer solutions, a developing tray etc. Has anyone used it? The fixer is ammonium thiosulfate - does that give any clues as to the process?

At the same store I picked up 12 sheets of "sun print" paper 11x12cm for 2 bucks. The sheets are just under 4x5in, and make suprisingly good prints from a 4x5 neg. I'm assuming they use the cyanotype process, as they develop in water, and Hydrogen peroxide intensifies the heck out of them. The paper is pretty low quality (read thin and won't last long) but it might be a good start for anyone interested in old processes.

"fixer is ammonium thiosulfate" That's rapid fix.
